Originally from Greenwood (S.C.) High School, Chalmers was the country’s No. 46-ranked cornerback when he signed enrolled at Clemson in January of 2015.

In March, Chalmers was arrested on simple possession drug charges, before being dismissed by Clemson coach Dabo Swinney.

“Hopefully, he will finish school and have an opportunity to grow from his mistakes and actions,” Swinney said. “He is a very talented young man and it is always disappointing when you have somebody that embarrasses your program, but that’s the end of the road for him here at Clemson.”

Chalmers now has that opportunity at South Carolina.

After taking a redshirt at Clemson in 2015, Chalmers had 30 tackles, 13 pass breakups and an interception for Northwest Mississippi Community College.

For the Gamecocks, he has three years of eligibility remaining.

According to the 247Sports composite junior college rankings, Chalmers is the No. 14-ranked cornerback in the country.
